The Equal Justice Initiative is engaged in a number of initiatives to address histories of racial violence - such as slavery and lynching - through the establishment of public markers and other remedial efforts. ​

The Wilmington Race Riot Commission - examining the racial massacre and coup of 1898 - is one of several efforts across the U.S. to examine major events of racial violence and inform contemporary remedial efforts. The commission was modeled on similar investigations of racial violence in Rosewood, FL (1923) and Tulsa, OK (1921).

​The William Winter Institute for Racial Reconciliation works in communities and classrooms, in Mississippi and beyond, to support ending and transcending all division and discrimination based on difference.
